Book Blast: The Altered #mmromance #paranormal #pridepromotions

Author Name: Annabelle Jacobs

Book Name: The Altered

Release
Date: April 9, 2015

Blurb:

Twenty years ago the UK’s water
supply was contaminated with an experimental pathogen, Lycanaeris, causing
widespread panic across the nation. Terrorism was suspected but never proven,
and when nothing happened--no epidemic, no unexplained illnesses--the whole
episode was written off as an elaborate hoax. But Lycanaeris was selective.
Only those of a certain age, and with a specific gene in their DNA were infected.
Time would reveal the pathogen’s true nature, when those susceptible grew up
Altered.

Daniel is one of thousands forced to hide his
altered status by living a quiet life. He’s not like the others, though. Daniel
can’t help looking so distinctive or being able to see every altered for what
they really are. To those abducting altereds, that skill makes him valuable.

For Jordan, shifting from human to wolf means
living under the radar to avoid unwanted attention. Meeting Daniel complicates
matters. Daniel’s existence is a threat to Jordan and his friends, but Jordan
can’t seem to shake the strange connection between them. When danger threatens,
there’s little time for Daniel and Jordan to work out their feelings before
lives are at stake.

Excerpt:

He laughed at
the joke Matt was in the middle of telling, chipping in for a bit and teasing
him, and then he felt it again, creeping up the back of his spine like icy
fingers. Daniel stayed perfectly still, suppressing his body’s natural
reaction, and carefully turned to place his empty pint glass on the bar.

He let his
gaze wander along to the end of the bar, past the couple he’d spotted earlier,
and—

Bloody Hell.

He sucked in a
sharp breath before he could stop himself. Usually he got a flash of images,
depending on how much they’d been altered—claws, teeth, and fur if they changed
fully, but never anything like this. One minute Daniel was looking at a tall
dark-haired, really hot man, and in the blink of an eye he’d changed into a
huge black wolf, fangs bared in a snarl—clearer than anything he’d seen before.

The image
vanished almost as soon as it appeared, and the noise from the bar suddenly
jarred Daniel back to his senses.

Annabelle Jacobs lives in the South West of England with her
husband, three rowdy children, and two cats.

An avid reader of fantasy herself for many
years, Annabelle now spends her days writing her own stories. They're usually
either fantasy or paranormal fiction, because she loves building worlds filled
with magical creatures, and creating stories full of action and adventure. Her
characters may have a tough time of it—fighting enemies and adversity—but they
always find love in the end.

Be Yourself

To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. ~e.e. cummings, 1955
